1. Aw, aren’t they cute 🙂

   1. Thank you! 🙂

2. Thanks for the overload of Puffin cuteness! They bring back the lines of a poem I had read in my childhood with the greatest force:

   All things bright and beautiful
   All Creatures great and small…

   1. Thank you! 🙂 I too feel overjoyed watching them. Puffins are one of the sweetest nature’s adornments here in Ireland.

    1. Thank you! I thought that a puffin story would do well as a first post after the long silence 🙂 Who doesn’t love a puffin? xxxxxxxxxxxxx

          1. Thank you! Enjoy the week to come! xxxxxxxxxxxxx

15. Beautiful photos! Thank you for sharing. It’s lovely to see puffins in another area of the world. We also have them here in Maine, USA although I have never photographed them. http://projectpuffin.audubon.org/conservation/research-islands

    1. I knew they have to be somewhere on the East coast! 🙂 Puffins spend most of their life on water and no one really knows where they travel or how they survive. There is very little information on that.

       1. Maine ocean islands provide the only nesting sites for Atlantic puffins in the United States. Their numbers were dwindling but 2017 was a record year for puffin chicks. There are now 4000 puffins off the coast of Maine each summer. It’s nice to know you have them in Ireland as well! Your photos are spectacular.

          1. Wow, so delighted to hear that. We have small breeding colonies around the coast, the biggest is Puffin Island, but the numbers are declining which is not a surprise as they lay only one egg.

16. How cute are they?!

    1. Thank you! When I sat on that cliff it was like I woke up in a fairy tale 🙂

       1. Yay!

17. When I saw your post———OMG———Inese is back ! I have missed you so much. Someone hinted that you went to the Space Station but I doubt it. I am so HAPPY that you are back. Can’t wait for the new adventures. Love your puffins.

    1. I am still on my way back, but hope I overcome the anti-gravity 🙂 Thank you for being a friend.

18. They are beautiful!

    1. Thank you! 🙂

19. remarkable shots!, dear Inese 🏅

    1. Thank you! Stuck to that cliff for most of my time on the island.

20. We don’t have Puffins in the states (I think), so their fun faces are a treat for me.

    1. Thank you! 🙂 This is Atlantic puffin, and I think there might be a colony or two on the East cost of the US. They stay at sea most of the time and only return to land to breed.
